After taking care of Father who passed with Lung Cancer & additionally, at the sme time dealing with sister's lymphoma cancer who now was in remission after stem cell transplant, I decided now was the time to do something for me who deserved it and needed it! Life's too short and I wanted to start living life and treat myself.
I had my Lifestyle Lift in Dec. 2011. I went in looking 60 yrs old and now look 40 something. With the stress of living with an alcoholic husband and then watching him die as a result, the past 10 yrs of stress was really showing on my face. It had gotten to the point where I hated looking in the mirror and then I saw an informercial of Lifestyle Lift and things started looking up. Updated on 9 Mar 2012: I originally saw an informercial and then did research on the internet. After my consult with Dr. David Hicks I went home and researched him and liked what I saw. I then made my decision after weeks of thinking & praying about it to go forward with my procedure. Updated on 12 Apr 2012: I am four months post op now and still doing good. All the swelling is completely gone and my neck still looks great. Updated on 21 Sep 2012: Nine months post op and doing great.
I had looked into doing something a few years ago when one day, seemingly overnight, I developed wrinkles and a turkey neck. This was apparently caused from a slow but substantial weight loss, resulting in extra skin. I appeared to be aging rapidly. Then as a gift I was offered this procedure from a family member who wanted to help and I jumped at it! I'm very very pleased with the results. What a gift! The doctor was extremely competent and knowledgeable; the staff very friendly and supportive, and the recovery quick and practically pain free. The appearance immediately following the procedures was not without looking like something substantial had just happened to my face, but I was out in public in a couple of days, with sunscreen of course. I feel so much better now about my appearance and have been told I just lost 20 years!
